Dunedin - little Scotland!









Well I must admit I am a bit pushed for time these days, however, I convinced myself that it was an absolute must to go to 'Dunedin' as it has so many connections with little old Scotland. So I got there in the evening and woke up the next morning at 6am to catch the sunrise and to go and see as much as I possible could before I left on the 2pm bus to Queenstown! And so I walked around town and took some beautiful photos of the harbour and of the town including the 'railway station' a statue of 'Rabbie Burns' and also the longest street in the world...which yes, I did in fact walk up. I also went to the beach for my last hour as it was only 15 mins away (St Kilda and St Clair beach) and watched some of the kids windsurfing and also enjoyed the view of the rocks and the sea. Gorgeous. It was funny, I had met a woman up in the bay of islands a few weeks ago and she was once again sharing a room with me, she is really funny and a bit outrageous without meaning to be! She met a guy in China she couldn't speak to but had a connection with him and agreed to meet him the next day and she could not find him and she continues to be saddened by this unlucky event as she doesn't seem to meet many men she likes. She had her own hairdressers at home and so the woman talks a LOT, but she is lovely.

I am at a point now though that I have to miss things out that I would like to do, because of time or lack of cash. I would have liked to see to Otago penninsula and I hear there is some gorgeous wildlife around there but time has just not been on my side as I had to get moving. Maybe next time! When I come with my family!

delicate

we might kiss
when we are alone
when nobody’s watchin’
we might take it home
we might make out
when nobody's there
it's not that we're scared
it's just that it's delicate
so why d’ya fill my sorrow
with the words you've borrowed
from the only place you've known
why d’ya sing hallelujah
if it means nothin’ to ya
why d’ya sing with me at all?
we might live
like never before
when there's nothin’ to give
how can we ask for more?
we might make love
in some sacred place
that look on your face
is delicate
so why d’ya fill my sorrow
with the words you've borrowed
from the only place you've known
why d’ya sing hallelujah
if it means nothin’ to ya
why d’ya sing with me at all?
